Subject: Vector 4
Heeeeelp. I just picked up a Vector 4. It has a 5 meg harddrive, and one 600k
floppy. The system came with the harddrive formated and the LINC version of
CP/M running. No disks, except for two originals from some accounting program.
Neither of them have system tracks so the only way I can boot the machine is
off of the HD. The HD only has the accounting programs, the LAN utilities,
and a couple of CP/M programs (NS, NULU, etc). I cannot format the floppy.
When I try it gives me an "INCOMPLETE FORMAT" error. Besides, I don't have
the SYSGEN (GENSYS) program for copying the tracks. Argh. Is there anyone out
(I've seen people asking questions about the Vector :) there that I could get
a system disk, plus all of the transient programs, from? I'd like a copy of
the "standard" CP/M that came with this. Hopefully it will let me get the
floppy going.
Please respond to "sactoh0!cosumn!brian", not "sactoh0!brian". Thanks.
